Lee Evans - Chassis Test Manager} ------- Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} C6/C8.8.35 NOISE INSULATION SCHEME ----------- We note your recommendations and abbreviated scheme for noise insulation on the Bentley. Presumably you would want to try this out to see whether it has sufficient effect to justify it, and I suggest you have it fixed up on Van Voren's experimental car which will be finished towards the end of the month. You might like to instruct Van Voren to do it on your way through Paris, or we could no doubt arrange for it to be fitted in London. C. | ||
